The clock ticks past 5:00 PM. You’re still tracing evidence across Excel tabs, juggling client requests, and reviewing testing procedures for the third time. If you’re an auditor, this might sound all too familiar.
You’re not alone.
Across audit teams everywhere, thousands of professionals are wrestling with the same challenge: audit work that never seems to end. But a growing number of internal auditors are turning to automation to break that cycle. They’re not just working faster; they’re getting their summers back.
And they’re doing it with DataSnipper.
Speed Up Internal Audit Testing with the Financial Statement Suite
Manual testing can quickly become the bottleneck of audit. Ticking and tying, referencing support, validating balances; it’s all necessary, but brutally time-consuming.
With DataSnipper’s Financial Statement Suite, internal audit teams can automate audit testing by:
- Instantly linking financial statement line items to supporting documents
- Using AI-powered document matching to test for completeness
- Creating smart tickmarks that track the audit trail in real-time
Instead of wrestling with fragmented files, you’re moving through your procedures at speed, and with more accuracy.
"For a typical payroll test, we often review approximately 80 different PDFs across 20-40 samples. When done manually, this task is extremely time-consuming. DataSnipper has automated this process, saving up to 70% time." - Gatlin Hawkins, Lead Audit & Assurance Partner
Automate PBC Management with UpLink
Collecting client responses shouldn't feel like herding cats. But for most auditors, managing PBC lists means scattered emails, missing documents, and way too much follow-up.
Enter UpLink, DataSnipper’s embedded PBC request tool.
- Create and manage client request lists directly in Excel
- Automatically organize uploaded files with linked evidence
- Track request statuses without leaving your workbook
Internal audit teams use UpLink to centralize documentation and simplify communication,freeing up days of admin overhead.
Eliminate Manual Document Review with DocuMine
Digging through 200-page PDFs to verify one data point isn’t just inefficient - it’s exhausting. For internal auditors, document-heavy reviews are often where time disappears, and fatigue sets in.
With DocuMine, powered by AI, you can transform how you interact with lengthy documents:
- Ask direct questions inside Excel, like “What’s the lease term?” or “Where is revenue disclosed?”
- Receive precise answers backed by highlighted text, numbers, or sentences from the source documents
- Stay in control while speeding up document validation and reducing review time
Instead of scrolling endlessly or relying on CTRL+F guesswork, internal auditors using DocuMine can focus on analyzing data - not hunting for it.
This means better audit quality, faster turnaround, and way fewer headaches.
Use AI-Powered Document Intelligence to Cross-Reference
Whether you’re verifying contracts, policy documents, or testing compliance, manually cross-referencing is one of the most painful parts of the process.
With DataSnipper’s Cross Reference Snips and AI-powered suggestions, auditors can:
- Highlight a section in a document and instantly see related references
- Compare clauses, terms, or disclosures across multiple files
- Create automated audit trails that speed up review and oversight
Less time searching means more time analyzing. And that’s exactly what internal auditors need to add value.
"With DataSnipper, team members have observed 40-50% time savings while conducting a regular Test of Details using Document Matching and Snips on DataSnipper." - Leon Dieleman, Audit Supervisor
